<h1>Renaming objects on reports </h1>
<p>You can rename an object on a report to make it easier for you and other 
 users to identify the object and its role on the report. For example, 
 you can rename the Employees attribute to Associates so that all employees 
 are listed in a column named Associates.</p>
<h2>To rename objects on a report</h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Click the name of the report to execute it.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>On the grid, right-click the object to rename and select 
 <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Rename</B></span>. The Rename/Edit Objects 
 dialog box opens. </p></li>
	<ul type="disc" class="whs2">
		
<li class=p><p>If DTHML is disabled: From the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Data</B></span> 
 drop-down list, select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Rename/Edit Objects</B></span>, 
 then click the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Go</B></span> icon. From the 
 drop-down list, select the object to rename and click the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Go</B></span> 
 icon again.</p></li>
	</ul>
</ol>
<ol start="3" type="1" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Type a new name for the object in the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Name</B></span> 
 field.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Click <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Apply </B></span>to
